Topic: Haup. 350 Sound very low (Read 968 times)

My volume for my MP3 playback is excellent, but the playback for my Haup tv card is lower, not to the point where I can't hear it it's usable, but I'm wondering, I don't currently have a separate sound card, just the one that came with the motherboard. It only has to PCI slots, one is used for my video card the other for the TV tuner, so my question. Do I replace the motherboard to get one with enough PCI slots so that I can add a good sound card, OR do I replace the 350 if so is there another TV tuner that is as plug and play as the 350.

This should not be necessary. You can change the output volume using the mythtv setup, from the mythtv frontend (normal viewing mode)To fix this do the following:

1. Fire up MythTV from the "TV" menu selection just like normal.2. Once MythTV is up and displaying the show, either using an MCE remote or the keyboard invoke the LMCE menu. Keyboard use the F7 key - From the menu on the far left, select "Recordings" MCE remote, press Recorded TV (same as selecting recordings from the left most LMCE menu)3. Escape back one MythTV Menu Level Keyboard use the ESC key MCE remote use the back arrow4. Go down and select the "Utilities/Setup" option - Hit Enter5. Go into the "Setup" option (Should be the only one available) - Hit Enter6. Go down into the "TV Settings" menu - Hit Enter7. Go down to "Recording Profiles" menu - Hit Enter8. Select "Transcoders" - Hit Enter9. Select "LiveTV" - Hit Enter10. Navigate through there until you get to about the third screen go to where it says "Volume" Use the Up/Down arrow keys on the keyboard Use the directional pad Up/Down on the MCE remote11. Change it to the desired volume Use the Left/Right arrow keys on the keyboard Use Left/Right directional pad on the MCE remote12. After you have it where you want it, arrow down with keys or directional pad to "Finish" and hit enter.

That should be all you need to do. Play with the settings until you are comfortable with the levels. These should stick and remain that way.I hope this helps. Once you are done with all your settings, and have exited out to the main menu (ESC or Back Arrow), Go back to Live TV Keyboard use F7, and then select "live" from the left most menu. MCE remote, just press "Live TV"

Thank you so much friend!! This completely fixed my problem. I'm still thinking of upgrading my hardware as it hangs up after about two days. But I have another computer I'm going to see if I can recreate the same problem, and that might give me an idea of which way to go!!

Thanks again, by the way your instructions are excellent. Very detailed!!!
